Keep Your Distance Lyrics

If I cross your path againWho knows here, who knows whenOn some morning without numberOn some highway without endDon't grasp my hand and sayFate has brought you here todayFate is only fooling with us, friendCHORUSKeep your distanceKeep your distanceWhen I feel you close to meWhat can I do but fallKeep your distanceKeep your distanceWith us it must be all or none at allIt's a desperate game we playThrow our souls, our lives awayWounds that can't be mendedAnd debts that can't be paidO I played and I got stungNow I'm biting back my tongueAnd I'm sweeping out the footprintsWhere I strayedCHORUS
